Our 1st Team is done and dusted.
Summer Series (11) – from Fairholmes. Results. “All down to the last race in two weeks " Crookstone Special" at the earlier start time of 6.30pm.”
Sierre-Zinal Results – anyone running?
Borrowdale – results. “ It was claggy and very wet / slippery underfoot. Another race where map and compass (or local knowledge played a part). Apart from the obvious positions shown on the results the Men’s team were 3rd and Ladies Team were 1st.”
Long Tour of Bradwell. “was overcast and warm till noon then hot and sunny. Very well organised and lots of tapes meant that finding the checkpoints /route was easy. A lovely route and well suited to fell runners with a lack of flat running! Jon Morgan excelled himself by being 25 minutes in front of 2nd man finishing in 4.54. I (Nicky) was 1st Lady in 6.03 (narrowly beaten by Greg Rimmer). results
DT – that means Nicky doubled up this weekend….
Snowdon – World Championship Trial:- Rob Little was there, 9th position…
Osmotherley Show:- was a good course, but hardly worth a long travel. A typical country show on offer, then up through the private grounds of this big hall, and enough hard work to a trig point on the moors. A good finish, rather like that classic Baslow finish in Chatsworth Park. Qualifying for first local, Joe was first home.
This race had the ultimate answer to the traditional starting chaos. We lined up outside the electronic gates to this stately home, and the start was when the gates were opened. Perhaps the FRA needs to invest in some portable electronic gates?
